Rosemary bought us tickets to see the Jefferson Starship Paul Kantner 71st birthday gala at the Ridgefield Playhouse on Thursday March 15th, 2012. This secures our first concert for calendar year 2012.
Jefferson Starship today consists of Paul Kantner, David Freiberg, Slick Aguilar, Donny Baldwin, Chris Smith, and Cathy Richardson.
There will also be a tribute to the late Papa John Creach who we saw play with Hot Tuna in 1970 and 1971.
I have listened to Blows Against The Empire and Planet Earth Rock and Roll Orchestra the past few days.
Nona Hendryx is listed as a special guest star. You may remember her from Labelle who had the hit “Lady Marmalade“.
The concert listing also indicates there will be other guest stars appearing with Jefferson Starship that night. My personal wish is that it will include Marty Balin but I’m not confident he will be there.
Mimi Page is the opening act.
